Friends,
It is an honor to inform you that the Los Angeles-based Consul General of
the Republic of Armenia, Grigor Hovhannissian, will be providing the
official welcome at this weekend's Fresno HyeFest, a celebration of Armenian
food and culture on the Fulton Mall. Welcoming remarks by the Consul
General and Mayor Swearengin are scheduled for 6:30 p.m.
Fresno HyeFest runs from 5 to 11 p.m. on Friday, and from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.
on Saturday, at the corner of Mariposa and the Fulton Mall. The festival
features delicious Armenian food, top-notch entertainers from Fresno and
around the state, and unique events such as a competitive tavli (backgammon)
tournament and Saroyan-inspired Downtown bike ride on Saturday. HyeFest
2009 is the first in what is expected to become an annual celebration of
Armenian life in the Valley.
For more information about Fresno HyeFest, please visit www.hyefest.org or
call (559) 621-8350. We hope to see you Friday evening to help welcome the
Armenian Consul General to Fresno and make HyeFest a success!
